Rig Veda 9.86.8: Mandala 9, Sukta 86, Mantra 8
Sukta 9.86
राजा समुद्रं नद्यो वि गाहतेऽपामूर्मिं सचते सिन्धुषु श्रितः । अध्यस्थात्सानु पवमानो अव्ययं नाभा पृथिव्या धरुणो महो दिवः ॥
rājā samudráṃ nádyo ví gāhate ’apām ū́rmiṃ sacate síndhuṣu śritáḥ | ádhy asthāt sā́nu pávamāno avyáyaṃ nā́bhā pṛthivyā́ dharuṇó mahó diváḥ ||
Woh raja hai, samundar mein jata hai jaise nadiyan jati hain. Dhaaron mein reh ke paani ki lehron ke saath chalta hai. Yeh apne aap ko saaf karne wala un oonche pahad par chad gaya jo kabhi khatam nahi hota. Yeh dharti ka nabhi hai, aasmaan ka mazboot aadhaar.
